Alot of people underrate rockys defense. He actually did bob and weave often just at a slower pace. He had a shot of taking ali out late based on the fact that rocky NEVER ran out of gas in the later rounds.

Awsome post Don't create statements, I never said Lennox was in complete control of the fight and 6 was not his worst round of the fight. Lewis landed more punches in round 6 then most of the other rounds, including an uppercut that split Vitali's lip in half (required a decent amount of stiches to close.) At the end of the 6th, "both" guys were gassed but Lennox finished that round better. Vitali averaged over 70 punches per round, Lewis averaged 37 (20 of them being jabs)......the lowest output in the career of Lewis. Which means that Lewis weighing almost 260 pounds and barely throwing/landing any punches was able to damage Vitali the way he did why? The answer is simple, Vitali had no defense and made the fight a brawl when could of easily boxed and stayed away. He gave Lewis the chances by brawling and coming in close. I doubt Lennox feared Vitali and that made him retire, people can wish for that but that is far from the truth. I'm sure Lennox saw Vitali as a big risk, I'm sure Lennox wasnt rushing to fight him again either. You could tell before and after the Vitali fight that Lennox lost his will to fight and to train. Vitali in reality had nothing to gain if Lennox fought him again, fat and throwing low numbers. People would just say Vitali beat an old out of shape Lennox and that would probably be true. Lewis' best option was to quit on his feet unlike most fighters out there. The vitaly cheerleaders should take notes!

Golota should be happy that he even gets to fight for a title on tv after all the shananagins he pulled in the past. And if he does become champ it just shows what a farce the heavy division has become!

lewis had nothing else to prove! He cut the hell out of vitalys eye and it was only a matter of time before vitay was out of gas.

I dont see the big deal in letting him fight. Its his life let the man fight at his own free will. He will get ktfo'd the first time he fights a legit top 10 fighter anyway. Let the man cash out!

Mesi does suck, and so does guinn and barret and dokari and gomez. I was never truley sold on any of these fighters. I do see some decent prospects comming up

I really hope pac man fight Elterrible. It would be a classic fight and someone would end up on the floor.

Strum would be the perfect test for taylor and vice versa. I think we will see a major showdown between them 2 in the near future.

He beat the shit out of williams! What fight were you watching?

Sure, he cant even rule in this weak ass division. Give him the wbo title. Might as well give him the ibo title as well. Let him fight worthless euro trash and look good. Golota looked promising ONCE a long time ago. Now he is an average fighter in a below average division.

This is definatly a market ploy. He needs everything he can get if he thinks he can become champ again. I dont think we will ever see tyson in a meaningful fight again

I really dont watch the heavy division. not with interest at least. I like the lower weights, there is Huge amounts of talent in the lower weight classes.

That kid looked like roy after getting starched by johnson, he laid there all stiff

Wrong You can say the same thing about Tyson. Tyson actually held all the titles at once. He actually made something of his talents for a short time. When did golata ever win a title?

B-hop by late ko. Eastmen will be a live body but will get executed. Hopkins defies logic and time. The man is damn near immortal, I really hope he fights tito or retires after the fight. Oh, hopkins never takes anyone lightly!!

I think that strum clearly got robbed. If dlh has any class at all he would admit that he got beat.

I think shane can make 147. Its only 10 or so punds. Besides he was a much better fighter at the lower weight classes

Gatti looks real good as of late. I think he would have a better shot at kostya then mayweather though.

No mas destroys credibility and poopoo will never live it down.

Have you seen zoo's resume? It is very impressive!! He has fought and beat the best in his division. Nobody gave kostya a free pass. He wasnt hyped up like cotto. He earned everything he has by fighting and knocking out the best competition.

Did noone listen to the guy that understood germen? Klit quit and thats it! How many other fighters fought threw a injury? Holyfield, Even danny "the tomato can" Williams fought threwout an injury. A real champ would go down swinging, not crying over a hurt shoulder. Did Vitaly redeem himself, YES

Um, it sure didnt stop him from staying down the last time

Danny has more excuses then holyfield and tyson combined. The truth is he was a bum, that was overated for beating up old tyson, and had NO buisness fighting for the title. He made a mockery of the heavywieght championship belt. And Vitaly fed the fire by fighting this farce of a fighter.

Exactly, there was one round left!!! Your telling me he couldnt bear the pain for 1 round? 3 minutes? He hung around for the post fight interviews but couldnt avoid feather fists for 3 minutes? To me that makes you a quitter.

I thought that strum looked good against cherife. He also showed a hint of power. I think strum may be a bit underrated. Technically he should be undefeated if it wasnt for currupt judging.

Are you kidding? Did any other great fighter look at something like that and quit? How would you feel abaut ali if he quit against norton after suffering a broken jaw because it would ruin his carrear? Thats what makes good fighters great

Hopkins by ud. B-hop is the man, he has a good year left in him

Rahman would have a good chance, but I wouldnt bet too heavily on him. If he lands his right it could be a short night for Vitaly

Why you want to learn how to lean back?

imo Kostya beats Gatti, beats Hatton and has trouble with Mayweather and DLH, I actually think both Mayweather and DLH would kill K.T. @ 147lbs Kostya would slap floyd around just like he did his father before him. Kt would stop floyd early!
